Pokémon Masters "Direct-equivalent" - June 27th 2019 13:00 UTC
- Thread starter Serebii
- Start date
Oh right so you'll have an event where, for instance, you pull a Super Rare Brock with Onix and then you use them on your team? Sounds alright.
Pretty much. Also it allows them to add costumed/holiday/event units much more easily.
[Summer Misty + Psyduck] instead of [Reg. Misty + Starmie]
Based on what they've said, each character is tied to a specific Pokemon. However, usually in Gacha games, there are multiple variations of popular characters. Sometimes tied to events like halloween, christmas or summer, sometimes just special alternate or stronger (rarer) versions of the characters. This probably will happen in Masters at some point, although not at launch (but this is fairly standard, most games don't start with alts at launch).
I always was a sucker for those anime clips and this time is no different
Here I thought Kris was dead in a ditch, but no, now she can team up with her mortal enemy Lyra. Wonder if we'll be able to do the same with Green and Leaf.
Action game hurts the hype, but gotta keep it very separate from the main games I guess. Hopefully there's still good depth in the actual battles and not just team building.

Sounds good enough to me. Was hoping the 'level' mechanics you tend to get in these games to offset getting the same thing twice would lead to evolutions or they'll have some form of evolving through XP but we'll see
Sometimes with gacha games there are ways to upgrade the unit's rarity, but we'll see whether this game has such a mechanic.
Overall excited for a timewaster, I never pay money for these so hoping on whales to keep the game going for me, especially with the huge potential for alternates (Christmas, Summer, Wedding, Anime versions, etc.)
I'm not averse to paying money, have dropped some on Dragonball Legends and Go. If the monetisation is cheap, not necessary and the game is fun then I'll jump in.
If a game is monetised in a bad way I'll almost always jump out.
Not a fan of this, tho models look impressive, i wish they focused on Sword & Shield more instead.
They're completely different companies working on completely different games.
I'm actually a bit more excited for this than Sword and Shield. I've always wanted more focus on the trainers, because Pokemon has a lot of cool character designs and personalities that I've wanted to see come back.
I'm not that excited about the gameplay, because it's still a mobile game after all, but I love seeing all those trainers and their companions.
It's not the most spectacular graphics-wise, but this cartoonish style is the one I keep talking about in SwSh threads
I think that suits so much better the trainers, the Pokémon creatures, the franchise in general. I think that's the path the main games should've followed (obviously much more polished) instead of trying to go for the hyper-realistic, which they don't even achieve, and if they did, wouldn't fit the Pokémon.

There is actually, the staff that are working herd.
The hat looks a little too big for him.this has no relation or bearing on Sword and Shield
also, red looks baller as fuck, goddamn
Wonder why they gave Red a Charizard and Blue a Pidgeot after Let's Go gave Red a Venusaur and Blue a Charizard
Oh no, that's how Rosa is huhI'm not that excited about the gameplay, because it's still a mobile game after all, but I love seeing all those trainers and their companions.

you'll probably be able to roll for one. they'll get your money one way or another
Who, other than Grimsley, could have a Bisharp tho? He doesn't seem as popular to get alts early on either. Only hope is for Alola!Grimsley to be added soon-ish I guess.
I know the feeling bro. We Raichu fans need to stick together! (at least Lt. Surge with a Raichu should be a safe bet)
Oh yeah, they probably will do that
Hope we get a SuMo banner too with their adult versions
I wonder if they will work in events with anime art for characters or like Pokemon Adventures manga art for certain trainers. Would be fun.
Thorton & Bronzong are not what I figured would be in the launch line up but...sure, okay.
Since we'll probably only get one of them since they're interchangeable by design, it would make sense to go with the pokemon they all share: Bisharp
There's always the Shadow Triad?

I think I I read that there will be 65 sync pairs at launch so the list in the press release might be talking about free characters recruit-able in the story?
Cool.
Also wanna say props to Ken Sugimori, which I admire so much, for suggesting doing a game that featured all those characters he designed/helped design.
Wish some day in the future he also suggests to make a videogame featuring all the Pokémon... lol
what's wrong with her? lol it's because of the dialog or the design?
